Going all over the country, I'd say the craziest drivers are in Montreal.
Thats not to say 'terrible' or 'bad' just that they've got a place that they want to be and they're not going to lightly suffer having you in their way.
And even then...Montrealers are ##### cats compared to most of Europe.
An Italian will hit you and then reverse over your corpse to make sure, and then casually go about the rest of their day.
If the French see a pedestrian they wont even slow down so you'd better be nimble. They will hit you and then snatch your airborne baguette and never even look back.
Its their baguette now. Won gloriously in the heat of combat.

Montréal drivers have that ... Latin passion about their driving. I got passed in Montréal
on an on-ramp.
